VistaPrint Custom 40 oz. Tumblers
People who are on the go never leave home without their trusty drinkware. Give the gift of hydration this year with a custom 40 oz. tumbler from VistaPrint. All year long, they'll be carrying around a tumbler with a monogram, message, or your company logo. With six colors to choose from, these dishwasher-safe tumblers are high-quality and low-cost.

For the friend who loves a good gadget, the JBL Go 4 is a budget-friendly Bluetooth speaker with big sound in a travel-friendly size. You can upload a custom logo, play with the colors and add text in JBL's in-site customization platform.

L.L. Bean Boat and Tote
L.L. Bean's iconic Boat and Tote (or simply, Boat Tote) is a hot wishlist item right now and it starts at just $40 including the $8 monogram fee. You customize the tote with a clever phrase, full name or simple initial in a couple of different fonts and colors. It's an adorable, high-quality accessory that pretty much anyone would be excited to receive.

Etsy Monogram Decal
One of the most affordable custom gifts you can get are these monogram decals from Etsy. The 2-inch decal starts at just $4, and these are thoughtful touches for a water bottle, luggage, laptop and pretty much anything else someone might want to personalize. You can gift a decal by itself or do a little DIY and personalize any item for an absolutely epic, low-cost gift.

VistaPrint Custom Acrylic Photo Blocks
This holiday season, give the gift of a memory frozen in amber with this sturdy custom photo block from Vistaprint. Its glare-free finish accentuates any environment it's placed in, and its vibrant printing ensures you can appreciate the image for years to come.

Funko Pop! Yourself
Starting at $40, you can create a totally custom Funko Pop! figurine based on your gift recipient. There are endless combinations for hairstyles, clothing and accessories. Funko even has some licensed styling options from Stranger Things, KPop Demon Hunters, NFL, NBA and more.

Etsy Embroidered Last Name Cocktail Napkins
These personalized cocktail napkins are the perfect, luxurious little gift that I myself have given multiple times. (No seriously, all of my friends have a set on their bar carts at this point.) You get a set of 4 for just $36, and you can choose from dozens of thread colors based on what you think will match your recipient's style.

Mark & Graham Scalloped Leather Keychain
A monogrammed keychain is one of those foolproof custom gifts, but this scalloped version from Mark & Graham with gold foil is especially stylish. The pebbled Italian leather makes for an under-$50 gift that looks at lot more expensive than it actually is.

The Company Store Flannel Wine Bags (Set of 3)
Hosting gifts are at the top of mind for many, and these monogrammed flannel wine bags guarantee you'll show up to the party as MVG (most valuable guest.) They come in a set of 3, meaning you can split them up among family members or just bring three bottles for your host at once. (Again, we're going for MVG this year.)

Etsy Custom Pet Trinket Dish
For the person who's pet is their entire personality, this little custom trinket or jewelry dish is a sweet ode to their furry friend. You personalize it with the pet's name, breed and can even upload a photo of the pet in question when you reach out to the shop after placing your order.

Williams Sonoma Classic Stripe Apron
For $46 including the customization, this stripe apron becomes an instant, functional keepsake for the home chef or baker in your life. It's available in several different colors, so I recommend picking the one that matches the recipient's kitchen. Bonus points if you pair it with a set of matching dish towels.
